WAYNESBORO, Pa. — Nearly 15 years of uncertainty for the family of Angie Lynn Daley ended this week with the discovery of her remains in a remote wooded area in western Washington Township, Pa.

"We had just come back from a vacation at the beach," her father, Clarence Daley of Chambersburg, Pa., recalled Thursday after learning that the skeletal remains recovered Tuesday were those of his long-missing daughter. After returning from that vacation, Daley said he drove his daughter to the house of a friend on Hawbaker Avenue in Waynesboro, where she was to spend the weekend.

That was Aug. 24, 1995, the last time he saw Angie. After her weekend with her friends, Angie was supposed to go to the home of his ex-wife, with whom he shared custody, he said.

On Tuesday afternoon, Angie's mother, Sunday Gossert, learned from Waynesboro Police Chief Mark King that the remains found could be those of her daughter. Gossert said King met with her Wednesday and told her the remains had been identified through dental records.

Pennsylvania State Police said Angie Daley's remains were discovered through an investigation into the recent slaying of Kristy Dawn Hoke, 29, of Hagerstown.

Hoke's body was found Tuesday morning in a wooded area off East Ninth Street in Waynesboro after 47-year-old Jeffrey Eldon Miles of State Line, Pa., had been taken into custody.

Daley's remains were found at a farm between Waynesboro and Greencastle near Waynecastle in southern Franklin County, Pa.

"She was a great kid. We loved spending time together," Daley said of his daughter. "We didn't have any more problems with Angie growing up than with any other child."

However, Daley said his daughter would run away from home, usually staying at friends' houses for a few days.

"She'd always come back, and we'd work things out," Daley said.

"Angie was happy-go-lucky. Just your average 17-year-old," Gossert said.

Over the years their daughter was missing, the mother and father came up with ways to keep the memory of their daughter alive, while they dealt with the uncertainty of her fate. Gossert said they would play the Rolling Stones song "Angie" on her daughter's birthday and the anniversary of her disappearance.

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children on Thursday still had Angie Daley's 1995 photo on its Web site, along with an computer age-progression picture showing what she might have looked like at age 29. The physical description was of a slight girl, under 5 feet tall and about 100 pounds.

Her younger sister, Ashley Daley, said Angie, who would be 32, was "a fighter" who would've strongly resisted any attack, despite her diminutive size.

The worst part of the past 15 years was "the never knowing and wondering continually," Clarence Daley said. Over the years, he said he had come to terms with the possibility that Angie was dead.

"At least we know now," Clarence Daley said.

"It's sad, but at least the case is closed," Gossert said.

Angie's relatives said they feel slightly different when they wake up each morning now that they know she died.

"I still had that little bit of hope that maybe ..." Ashley Daley said, trailing off. "You just never know."

Angie's family praised King for his dedication to the missing person case while he was a detective.

"He seemed like he actually cared about this particular case," Ashley Daley said.

Posters with Angie's picture have dotted the police department's walls for years. King said new officers were told about her disappearance and veterans were routinely reminded about it.

Angie's family described her as "a partier" who enjoyed spending time with her dog, Sebastian, and going to McDonald's.

Was Miles sincere? Or was the threat a ploy undertaken because he knew authorities were investigating him in connection with the death of a Hagerstown woman?Whatever his intentions, Miles didn't jump and instead left the bridge in police custody. Later that day, he was charged with criminal homicide in the death of Kristy Dawn Hoke, whose body was found, in part, because of a conversation Miles' son had with police. ::snipping2::According to court documents, Miles later that day took investigators to the woods off East Ninth Street in Waynesboro, Pa.

Information was obtained from a suspect, which (led) to the discovery of her remains,” police said in a media advisory.No further details about the case’s status were released.

“The evidence is the evidence, but ultimately to me (the case) is unique because of Angie Daley, and her own unfulfilled hope and potential,” District Attorney Matt Fogal said Wednesday.

Daley’s death was listed as homicide through blunt force head trauma, according to a 2010 release from Franklin County Coroner Jeffrey R. Conner.On April 6, 2010, a warm, sunny spring day, state police found Daley’s skeletal remains concealed by vegetation on a farm between Waynesboro and Greencastle, Pa. The discovery came just hours after they pulled a woman’s body from a wooded lot off Ninth Street in the Borough of Waynesboro.

Police quickly charged Jeffrey E. Miles Sr., now 49, with criminal homicide in the other woman’s death. He is awaiting trial in the stabbing death of Kristy Dawn Hoke, a 29-year-old mother of three from Washington County.more at link
